580. Deputy Dominic Hannigan asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the number of units currently under the rental accommodation scheme in County Meath; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4880/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraUp to the end of December 2014 some 955 households have been transferred by Meath County Council from Rent Supplement to the Rental Accommodation Scheme (RAS) and other social housing supports in County Meath.
Numbers in RAS in each local authority area are subject to continuous fluctuation as contracts end, tenants move on, landlords withdraw from the scheme and new tenancies are allocated or vacancies in contracted units are filled. My Department does not hold information on the number of households accommodated in RAS, in each local authority area, on a day to day basis.
